27、由来。这个女孩从小努力学习，后来成为一位著名的工程师。1called考查过去分词。空处在句中作定语，此处表示“一个名叫的女孩”，因call与girl之间为逻辑上的动宾关系，因此填called。2after考查介词。此处表示“以一个隋朝工程师的名字给她取名”，故用be named after，因此填介词after。3admirable考查词性转化。女孩的父亲觉得隋朝工程师李春令人钦佩，因此这里填形容词admirable作宾补，表示“令人钦佩的”。4to have考查不定式。would like sb. to do sth. 意为“想让某人做某事”，故填to have。5a考查冠词。此处表示“一个男孩的名字”，且boys 的发音以辅音音素开头，故填a。6added考查时态。由全文时态可知，本空应用一般过去时。7finally考查词性转化。空处作状语，意为“最后”，故填finally。8where考查关系副词。空处引导定语从句，且在从句中作地点状语，故填where。9was考查主谓一致和时态。together with连接两个并列的成分作主语时，谓语动词的数要与其前的主语保持一致，故谓语动词用单数形式；此处叙述过去发生的动作，因此用一般过去时。故填was。10bridges考查名词复数。本空表示泛指，且bridge 为可数名词，因此填名词的复数形式。
